Today Blizzard unveiled Lords of War, a new five-part mini-series exploring the lore of World of Warcraft. The first episode is available to watch at the bottom of this post and after doing so you’ll have a better understanding of what freedom means to an orc.

Kargath Bladefist is a unique snow flake that refuses to be bound by anyone, let alone some dumb ogre clan. He’ll even go so far as to murder 100 of his own kind in order to be free. Trust me when I say there is no other orc on Azeroth (or Draenor for that matter) that has more hate in their heart than Kargath Bladefist.

If you were lucky enough to play The Burning Crusade expansion while it was current content, you’ll remember facing Grumpy old Bladefist in the Shattered Halls instance. That place was pretty rough on a fresh level 70 and many groups would disband before completing it all the way through.

So sit back and watch Lords of War Part One to get a little insight as to what drove Kargath into madness and ultimately giving rise to the Shattered Hand.
